Chapter 190 - The Darkness of the Sanctuary

“Bugui, do you come to me for that thing?”

Outside the church, Druid asked the person before him. Hearing that, Wang Bugui cast a martial art to isolate here, and then answered, “It seems that you do know. Tell me everything about it.”

“I’m also under the control of the elders. I’d better leave some things alone.” Druid made a deep sigh.

“Don’t worry. I’ve set up a barrier here. No one can hear our conversation. If you’re really afraid, don’t say too much, just pick a few key points.” Wang Bugui waved his hand.

“If you really want to investigate, the elders will be involved. Leave it alone.” Druid shook his head with a helpless face.

“Whom am I afraid of from childhood?” Wang Bugui revealed an evil smile.

“Okay, but you should be watchful. I think these people are more hateful and disgusting than the vampires.” Druid clenched his fists.

Wang Bugui could see that this good friend of his was in a very awkward situation now.

He then made a sneer, saying, “Clara was right. The Sanctuary has been rotten. Don’t worry about me. If those guys dare to block my way, I’ll kill them all for you Sanctuary people!”

“Don’t do that. The two major holy weapons still exit. It’s hard to kill them directly.” Druid reached out and exclaimed.

He knew the character of this old friend of his. Wang Bugui would kill all of them directly, if he encountered unpleasant things and people he hated. Even if the opponent was a giant, he would tell himself that man is the master of his own fate and then did what he wanted.

He had never been afraid of anyone since he was a child. Meeting Azrael, he also clamored to fight with him just because of the woman named Hanae Chiou.

“Why do you get so wordy now? Merutia is not as wordy as you. Let’s get down to business. I’m pressed for time.” Wang Bugui smacked his lips.

Druid made another sigh, saying, “The nuns all disappeared after 12 p.m. I was late every time and could only slightly feel the breath of vampires.”

“When the body appeared, it was covered with scars, no clothes. And in the bodies, there were still… You should know that they suffered the most painful torment of a woman before they died!”

“Yes, go on!” Wang Bugui’s chest rose and fell slightly. He suppressed his anger by taking deep breaths.

“Besides, I found that some of them were killed by a spear. And when they died, they were pregnant! Some were even covered with scars all over the body, dying miserably!”

“I asked the elders to launch the Seraph Knights force to investigate. However, they sent only ordinary knights. And the next day, they were found dead outside.”

“Among a hundred people, only one nearly rescued a nun. Unfortunately, when we arrived, he held in his stiff hands only a woman whose abdomen had been cut open by sharp claws.”

“Boom!”

Wang Bugui released powerful spiritual power from his body, trembling the entire church. All the people in the church were robbed of the ability to speak by fear, but no one dared to come out.

Because Clara had cast magic to block the exit and was scanning the crowd quietly.

Outside the church, Wang Bugui stood on the broken ground, looked at Druid and asked in a cold voice, “What happened later?”

Druid was also shocked by this pressure. A moment later, when he recovered his wits, he answered, “Helplessly, I went to the Hunters’ Union to issue a commission, and secretly assisted them. But there was no progress.”

“Somehow, the elders knew it, so they restricted me. Over the years, there was no clue. Later, I turned to investigate the upper-class nobles in London, and finally found something.”

“There is a nobleman in London that few people in the outside society knew him. But he’s a little famous among the two forces, because he is the younger brother of an elder.”

When Wang Bugui heard this, his eyes turned sharp. But he didn’t disturb and continued to listen.

“His name is Charlie Cole, and he is the brother of the elder named Alfonso Cole. With the power of the Sanctuary, he earned a lot of wealth. He’s even richer than the vast majority of the nobility.”

“After my secret investigation, I found this person very mysterious. He spends most time staying at his mansion. When he goes out, he usually goes to the churches to see nuns, or some other places with many women.”

“Later I learned that he was very lecherous. I once kidnapped one of his servants and learned that he often brought different women back to his mansion. But strangely, those women didn’t go out.”

“They would only leave by car late at night. As for those maids, most of them are Charlie’s playthings too.”

Hearing that, Wang Bugui made a frown. According to the intelligence, this person was the most suspected.

However, Druid added immediately, “But this man seems to be a philanthropist. He often takes his servants out to donate money and even help the poor in person.”

“There are many poor people who know him, and they all boast that Charlie is a man kinder than angels. It can be said that he has no stain except lust.”

“What? Such a guy is a philanthropist!?” Wang Bugui couldn’t believe it.

How could a guy who regarded women as playthings be a philanthropist that many people knew?

With a short sigh, Druid said, “Yes. I once followed him and found that he really often came to places where the poor gathered to donate money or buy food for them.”

“Besides, he also helped the poor children by sending them to private colleges in big cities. Those people didn’t feel at ease, so they’ve gone to the schools to see, and it turned out that the kids were really receiving higher education.”

“Uh… Even so, he’s still the most suspect. It’s necessary to investigate him personally!” Shocked and uncertain, Wang Bugui planned to investigate the nobleman in person.

“Well, I can only tell you those, and the rest is relying on you. If he’s really the murderer, you should be careful. Both the vampires and the elders are not easy to deal with!”

Druid looked serious. He was afraid that this old friend of his would kill Charlie if he found out that Charlie was the murderer.

That way, the strength of the elders alone couldn’t be underestimated, not to mention whether he was connected with the vampires or not. If Wang Bugui set a grudge against the Sanctuary, there would be a bloody battle.

“Well, if he isn’t the murderer, I will not kill him. But he still should be punished if he treats women that way. I’ll certainly beat him to waste!” Wang Bugui nodded.

He disdained men who abused women. If he found such a man, Wang Bugui would not kill him directly, but would break his bones and tendons.

He then added, “But if he’s really the murderer, I will cut him into scum. And the elder can’t escape the responsibility either. His brother should be punished the same as him!”

“I think you can understand that if the murderer is really Charlie, he would not be free without the help of the elders.”

“But the Elder Council has been around for so long. It’s not easy for you to shake its position!” Druid exclaimed in a low voice. He was afraid to be heard even if there was a barrier.

“I, Wang Bugui, have also lived for so long. Even the vampires couldn’t kill me. What’s more, as a Chinese descendant, how can I be afraid of these guys?” Wang Bugui said proudly.

“I know your team is very strong. But it’s still far from a real big force. If all the knights are mobilized, can you block them?” Druid persuaded.

However, Wang Bugui answered with a snort, “Whoever stands in my way must die! But I’ll only deal with the elders. I will not kill you Paladins.”

Druid frowned and replied, “Bugui, I hope there won’t be the day when you and I become enemies!”

“I’ll return this sentence to you intact. You domineering Paladins are also bound by rules now? The elders are rotten. You don’t want me to uproot them?”

“Twelve years passed. I thought you’d become a person like Kelson. Unexpectedly, you are so cowardly and willing to be controlled by the elders!” Wang Bugui scolded.

“Do you think I’m willing? Over the years, I had to comply with orders to withdraw, even if I saw our members being killed, and do some absurd things just because of the interests of the elders.”

“I really want to be a Paladin like Kelson, but I can’t! You know what? He carried the holy gun, which is also the decision of the elders.”

Druid went insane, telling such a secret. Then, with a wail of sadness, he added, “They decided Kelson’s fate, just because they don’t like his justice.”

“But Kelson didn’t object. He also wanted to add some hope to mankind! Kelson! Whoo…”

To Wang Bugui’s surprise, the man who was now one of the three major knights of the Seraph Knights would cry from sorrow this way.

The reason why Druid stopped Wang Bugui was that he didn’t want his friend to get involved in the muddy waters. After all, even his most respected person was indirectly framed by the elders.

And he, himself, was deeply involved in it now. Even if he was extremely helpless, he couldn’t resist.

Wang Bugui made a short sigh, saying, “Kelson is a real Paladin. Druid, I know what your good intention. But, in this way, I must annihilate the elders!”

“It is because of their existence that the Sanctuary is in a mess. Are you, who used to be right-minded, going to degenerate? Is that what Kelson wants to see?”

Hearing that, Druid opened his eyes wide, held his head in his hands, and took two steps backward.

Wang Bugui ignored him and continued, “You are now bound by the elders, and don’t resist. Are you still the Paladin whom Kelson valued?”

“Do you still remember Kelson’s last words?! He asked you to never disobey your faith, to remember every declaration word you make to become a Paladin, and to carry it out in your whole life!”

“Think about your declaration to a knight. If you can’t remember it, I’ll consider I don’t have you as a friend.”
